Identify and Order Wayne Dalton TorqueMaster Spring by Wire Size

Why Wire Size Is Your #1 Detail

Every TorqueMaster spring is defined first by its wire size—the thickness of the spring wire itself. On Wayne Dalton’s factory label you’ll see a three‑digit number (for example, 154, 160, 180) just before an “X.” That number is your wire size, and choosing the wrong one means a door that won’t balance or operate safely. Full list below!

How to Find Your Wire Size in 30 Seconds

1. Locate the white or yellow sticker on the metal spring tube.
2. Read the first number before the “X.” Example: 164 in “164X57.14 RH.”
3. Note the second number for length (57.14 inches in the example) and the letters RH or LH for wind direction.
4. Check the system style on the label—TM for Original or TM3/TM II for Plus.
5. Missing a label? You can order by door weight. To weigh your door - use a bathroom scale and release the tension on the spring to weigh. Make sure there is no spring tension on the door (cables should be disconnected or slack on both sides). Order by door weight here.

Save Money & Skip the Service Call

Buying direct means you pay only for the part, not a costly onsite visit. Most homeowners finish a TorqueMaster spring swap in under an hour with basic tools. Because the springs are concealed inside the tube, there’s no exposed torque shaft—making this one of the safest DIY garage‑door repairs out there. Result: a door that runs like new for less than half the price of a pro install.

FAQs

• How do I know if I have TorqueMaster Original or Plus?
  Original systems have a plastic counter‑wheel at one end and use a 7/16" socket for winding. Plus systems have a steel ratchet assembly and wind with a 5/8" socket.
  
• Do I need to replace both springs?
  Yes. Springs fatigue together; installing one new spring next to an old one causes imbalance and shortens the life of both.
• Can I upgrade to high‑cycle springs?
  You’re in luck—every replacement spring in our wire‑size collection is already wound from high‑tensile, oil‑tempered steel rated for 10,000 cycles or more.
• What tools will I need?
  A drill or impact driver with the appropriate socket, locking pliers, a flat‑head screwdriver, and safety glasses. Full illustrated instructions arrive with every order.
• How fast will my springs ship?
  Orders placed by 10 a.m. Mountain Time ship the same business day via UPS or USPS, and most customers see delivery in 2‑4 business days.
